Hello Godot community,
I've been following a Godot 3.5 tutorial to create a game, but I'm using Godot 4. I'm facing an issue where I don't see any output in the debug console, and no obstacles are being spawned in my game.
Expected behavior: When the game starts, I expect to see three random numbers printed in the debug console, and an obstacle should be spawned at a random y position on the screen every time the timer expires.
Debug Console Output Issue:
I have enabled the "Print" flag in the debug console.
When running the game, the output is empty.
Obstacle Spawning Issue:
My script is attached to the correct node in my scene.
The "timer" node is set to call the "_on_timer_timeout()" function.
The obstacle scene is preloaded correctly.
Error Messages:

E 0:00:01:0415 _load: Failed loading resource: res://obstacle_spawner.tscn. Make sure resources have been imported by opening the project in the editor at least once.

Here's my script:
extends Node2D
@onready var timer = $Timer
var obstacle = preload("res://Enviorment/obstacle.tscn")
func _ready() -> void:
randomize()
print(randi() % 4)
print(randi() % 4)
print(randi() % 4)
func _on_timer_timeout() -> void:
spawn_obstacle()
func spawn_obstacle() -> void:
var new_obstacle = obstacle.instance()
add_child(new_obstacle)
new_obstacle.position.y = randi() % 400 + 150
I think the differences between Godot 3.5 and 4 might be causing the issue. I'd appreciate any insights and guidance on resolving the debug console and obstacle spawning issues in Godot 4. Thanks in advance!
